Truth of No Truth

Jan. 9, 08

Flooded and drowning in thoughts
Rights and Wrongs, Deeds and Lies
Shivering and shaking with dread
Guilt and Horror, Deeds and Lies

I can sit still, staring straight ahead
My eyes blank along with my face
And inside my mind I’ll be dying
My emotions within barely contained

I’ll sit here, my lips so dry and cold
Moving in sequence like a mystic dance
Speaking stories you will never know
The truths of deeds, how I made the lies


I didn’t! I didn’t! Its truth is what I say!
She did it! She did it! Oh believe, pray!
The cries, my screams, agony can’t be faked?
What makes you second guess my tears?

I would never harm such sweet innocence
I shall never commit sin of ghastly murder
I didn’t! I didn’t! But I know who did!
It was I.

Flooded and drowning in thoughts
Rights and Wrongs, Deeds and Lies
Shivering and shaking with dread
Guilt and Horror, Deeds and Lies

‘Twas her, ‘twas her- one more whisper
She is I but I am not her, please, please!
Do not leave me alone with such vile
I shall die with her skin within me

And with the guilt and dirty conscious
I fall back to the bed uncomfortably
The chains on my legs are cold and heavy
To protect myself, I fall into blackness

Unconscious Deed of Lies
